World of Warcraft video contest
YouTube is holding a contest to find the funniest WoW videos
CraftingWorlds[dot]com Productions'
Atkins Switch
Tired of poorly done spoofs off of the "Mac Switch" ads? So are we. But this one's an excellent exception to the rule. For those of you who aren't one of the 8 million people who currently play WoW, one of the biggest pet peeves that mages have with other classes is how they are always pestered for the food and water items they can conjure. A brief rant on the subject is followed up with a deliciously clever new diet that solves the protagonist's food and water woes. If you currently play as a human, you might consider re-rolling with the Horde after watching this.
In case you couldn't tell, we're big fans of CraftingWorld[dot]com Productions. You can check out more WoW machinema- including one about a paladin's decision to switch to a shaman - at the creator's website by clicking here.
The Internet is for Porn
It was a close call, but Evil Hoof & Flayed Film's The Internet is for Porn comes out on top as our favorite WoW machinema of all time for its original and laugh-out-loud lyrics. The tune is taken from the Broadway musical, Avenue Q and features a cast of characters from the Argent Dawn server. The video does not include any nudity at all, but it does explain that the internet is for porn- a fact that guys around the world have been trying to keep under wraps since the birth of the information superhighway. Click here to see what the fuss is all about.
